Say A Prayer
If you're a praying person, please say a prayer for Tim Blair. If you're not a praying person, please send him your positive thoughts. Tim will be undergoing cancer surgery next week.
Feeling poorly for some time. Saw a doctor a few weeks ago, who sent me to a specialist, who booked me into hospital for tests.
It’s cancer.
Major abdominal surgery next week. If all goes well, the remaining non-cancerous section of me will be home by early-mid February. No idea yet how long a full recovery might take beyond then. Medical advice is very positive, but that wouldn’t count for much in the absence of care and love from family and friends. I’ve been overwhelmed. I’m lucky.
Say a prayer for his family and friends as well. They will have to be strong for him - and this is a disease that impacts more than just the one diagnosed with it.
Best of luck, Tim. Get well soon.

Tim, you are in my thoughts and prayers to be healed and be well, but also I have some other things to say to you. Your operation will hopefully go well and the surgeons will remove everything cancerous that they find. You will then be at a point of healing that will require chemotheraphy and perhaps radiation. This will be the most difficult part of your recovery and decision making.
My wife is in the middle of this , I have done a great deal of research on this and offer my analysis. Radiation and Chemotheraphy together is a very potent attack on cancer. My wife had radiation everyday and chemotherphy one day a week for 6 months. God speed and God bless.
